Walking Football
"When I was up in North Tyneside, I had the opportunity to take part in the Walking Football programme there. What I really loved about it was not just the energy, passion, and commitment of the people taking part, but also that real sense of coming together, connection, and the creation of a social space for many people which I know was really important for the people taking part. And it was really competitive as well, it was a pretty thorough workout that I had!"

Make new friends, keep fit, and have fun with our Walking Football groups. Unlike traditional football, there is no tackling and the game takes place at a walking pace, giving everyone a chance to take part.
